2,085 Pointshow to use ReadLine() (from the prompt) after we closed a file. After using the SetIn function it doesn't work.
using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Linq; using System.Text; using System.Threading.Tasks; using System.IO;
namespace SoccerStats { class Program { static void Main(string[] args) { string currDirectory = Directory.GetCurrentDirectory(); DirectoryInfo info = new DirectoryInfo(currDirectory);
var filename = Path.Combine(info.FullName, "data.txt");
var file = new FileInfo(filename);
if(file.Exists)
{
using (var reader = new StreamReader(file.FullName))
{
Console.SetIn(reader);
Console.WriteLine(Console.ReadLine());
}
}
Console.ReadLine();
}
}
}
